Leicester have not had their best season either and while much of this can be placed on the departure of star man Riyad Mahrez, by now they should have recovered. It has also been an eventful season for them, with the tragic plane accident that claimed the club chairman, while injuries to key players has also been a concern. They have been able to coin a five match unbeaten run since their loss to Arsenal in mid October and will be hoping to extend the run here but inject wins therein, having drawn each of their last three home matches across all competitions, the 0 – 0 draw and win on penalties over Southampton being the most recent. With all their quality, Leicester have managed just five wins in the league this season, with two of those coming at home, while they have conceded 17 times and scoring just one more. Leicester have managed just two clean sheets in their six home league matches this season and only on two occasions have they scored more than once in their six home league matches. Watford too, have two away wins in the six matches they have played this season in the Premier League. They have beaten Burnley and Wolves away and here they will find tougher opposition. With just one clean sheet in their away matches in the league, we are not backing Watford for much here especially by the fact that Leicester have managed at least a goal in five of their last six league matches at home. It is however not all rosy at Leicester with Harry Maguire, =10.5ptVicente Iborra and Rachid Ghezzal all major doubts as Daniel Amartey and Matty James are confirmed to be out with injury while James Maddison is suspended. On the Watford side Darryl Janmaat remains doubtful while Jose Holebas and Tom Cleverley are out.
